These tires are absolute garbage in the rain after 3 months. Whatever changed from previous defenders they should go back to. I tried with 90+ percent treadwear to have them warrantied and the credit offered was insulting. I have used defenders for ages but Michelin has lost me as a customer for life. Bas bad as the OE Hankook tires in civics. Never again. Premium price for awful wet performance.

Comfort & treadwear, 5 Years in the desert heat. Not bad.

Tires appear to be wearing well.

I love the tires, BUT never received my rebate!

These tires wear great and give a quiet comfortable ride. I am impressed with them.

Treadwear Longevity Comfort

We purchased four new 216/55VR17 Defender 2 tires for Treadwear & Longevity + Michelin reputation.

Have owned Michelin previously. Smooth ride, easy handling, reliable, exceptional longevity.

this is my second times to buy all 4 tires all season Defender 2 Michelin tires.

Feel solid when gripping the road.
